I received a Master's of Accountancy with an emphasis in Tax from the Marriott School of Business at Brigham Young University. I am currently working as an Accounting Manager at Signifyd.In my career, I have had the opportunity to see a company though an IPO processes, an acquisition by a public company days before IPO, and then partially spun off in another IPO process! This rapid growth has allowed me to play a significant role and lead out on projects such as system improvements (NetSuite, FloQast, Salesforce, etc.), technical accounting implementations (ASC 605 and 606 revenue recognition, internal-use software, share-based payments, business combinations, tax provisions, etc.), forecasting financial performance, month and quarter-end close processes, annual financial audits, full S-1 preparation, SEC review comments, external analysts and investor models, and more.My main strengths in life are perseverance and goal orientation. I find great satisfaction in achieving goals when everyone, including myself, thought that they were impossible to reach. My personal goals include becoming someone who maintains a positive focus, no matter what may be occurring around me. In turn, I hope that positive focus then makes a difference in the world around me. I want my countenance to reflect my character and am always looking for ways to improve myself and to help others around me.
